Brian Moynihan, Bank Of America

Since taking the CEO job at Bank of America in January 2010 the bank's share price has dropped over 40%. To be fair, much of BofA's troubles began long before Moynihan took over but he's been charged with cleaning up the mess. What was he paid in 2011? Roughly $1.4 million. Total compensation that year which includes BofA options and changes to Moynihan's pension stood at $8 million.
